Connecticut Humane Society Pets of the Week: Carson, Goose

This dog and cat are looking for their fur-ever homes

By Paul Petrone

If you're looking for a pet, drop into the Connecticut Humane Society's Waterford branch and have a look around. They have dogs, cats and the occasional small animal.

The animal shelter is located at 169 Old Colchester Road and is open Monday through Saturday, 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dog adoption hours begin at 10:30 a.m. The phone number is (860) 442-8583.

Humane Society employee Rachel McCabe introduced us to these animals this week:
  • Carson, a 5-year-old American pit bull mix who can live with other dogs,
  • Goose, a 4-year-old male cat who is having a tough time at the shelter.
